Use address-taken to disambiguate global variable and indirect memops.

 Major steps include:
 1). introduces a not-addr-taken bit-field in GlobalVariable
 2). GlobalOpt pass sets "not-address-taken" if it proves a global varirable 
    dosen't have its address taken.
 3). AA use this info for disambiguation.
